Flashback Studios Progress 3

Standard

I have finished all the Mobster levels, and created sound effects for the game ‘Lawless’. I used my microphones in my bedroom to make the sounds of various punches and hit. The gun shot sounds were from sample packs, as i don’t access to real guns, i don’t think the expected me to go out and shoot some stuff. The game should all come together soon, i can’t wait to play it.

Horror Game Progress 4

Standard

After finding some one to record the dialogue with me, David requested 6 Ambient tracks that he could loop throughout the game to create different feelings. It took me a few days to make tracks out of synth pads and low piano bass notes, but it was a pretty easy process. I held down notes with different pads in Nexus and Sylenth to create a sense of dread. I tried to make the ambience sounds have no obvious rhythm so that changes would seem unexpected and surprising to tie in with the genre of the game. I also added occasional string instruments such as a chello playing the odd note to create an uncomfortable atmosphere.

I have submitted all files to David now, with the addition of some sound effect he requested to be edited.
